Eddie Murphy To Return As Axel Foley In Netflix’s Beverly Hills Cop 4

Netflix is on a roll with starting production on almost a dozen big movies. Beverly Hills Cop 4 is one of these movies. Fans will see Eddie Murphy re-enact his role as Axel Foley in the highly anticipated sequel.

California’s Film & TV tax credit program revealed a total of 23 new projects to be filmed in the state this month. The list includes 10 studio movies, while the rest are indie features.

The list includes two other highly anticipated projects, which are Jean-Marc Vallée’s unnamed biopic on the lives of John Lennon and Yoko Ono for Universal Studios. The other project is Zack Snyder’s next sci-fi venture which he’ll follow up on after the success of Army Of The Dead.

Beverly Hills Cop 4 is set to have Bad Boys’ Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah for co-direction. Murphy was not ready to do the role until he felt that the script was written perfectly. The film has progressed to the point where the production is starting with complete assurance to Murphy. Eddie Murphy is also ready with an idea for “Coming 3 America,” but the project isn’t starting any time soon.
